I highly doubt this is her being a sore loser; there's more at stake here than winning or losing the dumb race to the bottom.

TAROT! RULE 22 ⃰!

* 22. No matter how tempted I am with the prospect of unlimited power, I will not consume any energy field bigger than my head.

Tarot's head just got bigger, does that mean she can consume a larger power source?

Is "Tarot's Rule 22" like "Catch 22"?

Oh, that's a shame, I was hoping we'd get to have some fun with the 90-something other floors, didn't think it'd just end at the montage. Kinda makes the "100 floors" gimmick rather pointless, it could have been fun to play with for some bits.

Oh well, incoming Were-ot V Were-es fight!

Now just wait - something is telling me Grape and Tarot are going to fight.

She's mad about that cake.

Also, as I said before, unless Peanut's found some Spell Books, a Weapon or maybe even have the Limbo Warframe's Powers stowed in that dapper top hat, unless Tarot can be reasoned with, or beaten with Logic, Peanut's going to be next to useless in this fight if Tarot aims at Team Sandwich after beating Team Nerd.

Quite the Sore Loser she's being right now, something I suspect she's picked up from Dragon... And to make matters worse, I think she's rushed on ahead of the rest of her Group, since her Were-Tarot form seems to take up the whole lift, and Mungo would suffocate if he's in there.

Nah, Tarot’s had skin in this comic too long for that. Can’t just get rid of jerkish but somehow beloved characters just like that. (Wait...)

Perhaps not in the way that i imagined but i did suggest that tarot was gonna be or become a villian.

...3 nerds with the minds that of young teenagers (and a celestial trickster demi-god but Tarot doesn't know that) are about to receive (seemingly to a mortal) unlimited cosmic power without even knowing it is, what it can do, or how to use it and none of you think that's reasonable reason to cause alarm!? Y'all really ARE stretching the Tarot hate out a bit, there's reasons to dislike Tarot but come on now . Yes, I do believe it's completely possible that she might lose control a bit if she DOES get the mana like many people would, and she would have something in mind considering she really misses her celestial foresight, but i highly doubt she's gonna become a villain. If anything she'd have a cartoon lesson about how she doesn't need her power and she might break down a bit yada yada character development, but that's about it. She's not perfect by any means but she's not unreasonable. (but do feel free to say "told ya so" when she is completely and clearly the actual antagonist once her motives are officially revealed and her actions if she does get the mana show to be selfishs, I'll take that hit honorably)
Also I'm not really getting the "Peanut's party is gonna have to fight her" thing considering they're on the same side if not neutral to the conflict. Maybe they'll try to get it for fun, I'da know, there just doesn't seem to be a reason for them to fight anyone but Joey's party (who people keep seeming to forget were kinda jerks throughout most of this up until the puzzle part to some degree)... ya know besides the were-fight.

Yes, right after they all pummel Tarot for trying to attack Team Nerd.

Seriously, do you think Tarot's doing this to play Tiddlywinks? She's been getting even more aggrivated with each passing page, and only NOW she uses her Werebeast form!?

Just a heads-up ~ not hating Tarot. Just pointing out that fighting your friend's parties TENDS to be bad. Of course, I also expect them to walk away and say "Well, with the fate of the world involved, we can excuse that.". Which Is understandable. As for Tarot fighting Peanut's party, I'm worried Tarot might push it too far. She already told Max her job, so there is signs she will definitely deliver on her promise on that.

I also suspect that mana is going to seriously buff up Grape. That's my two cents.

That assumes that draining the pool involves absorbing or using the power in some way. I pictured the process to be more like grounding a capacitor, one big spark and then the power's gone.
